Seoul 首爾 - Planning 規劃

Flight and Hotel	機票航班和酒店
Every time I travel, I book flight (or air ticket) before hotel.	每當我旅遊，我都會先預訂機票, 然後訂酒店。

Tips#1	小貼士#1
check if you have saved air mileage, for free ticket <-- this is what I did for this seoul trip check if there is any event or store you want to go, ensure the place will be opened (which day will be closed in a week or month). <-- the travel date may change accordingly.	檢查是否已存有足夠的飛行里數，免費換取機票 <-- 這次首爾之旅就是用飛行里數換取免費機票 事先考慮你有否想要去的活動或商店，確保場所將會開門營業

Day Plan	日程
Highlight a few things you want see, place you want to go, items you want to buy, food you want to eat, and people you want to meet during your trip.	列舉出幾件你想在旅程辦到的事情，如你要看到，你想要去的，你想買到的物品，你想要吃的食物，及你要約會的人。

e.g.
Things I want to see in seoul   我要看到	Art pieces and south korea history   藝術作品, 南韓歷史
Place I want to go   我想要去的	National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Hangang, Hanok Village, Royal Palace, CheongGyeCheon, Tea House   國立現代美術館, 漢江, 韓屋村, 皇宮, 清溪川, 茶館

Tips#2	小貼士#2
check if there is discount or free service buy a travel guide book that show shops in an area <-- for me, I need a map show me the name of the restaurant, and cosmetic shops near Myeongdong station. guide book list restaurant and so as discount <-- the restaurant offer 10% discount if I show the guide book to the cashier ^^	查考是否有折扣或免費服務 購買旅遊書，顯示那區鄰近的商店 <-- 對我來說，我需要一張地圖，顯示那區鄰近的餐廳名字,及明洞站附近的化妝品店。 旅遊書介紹的餐廳和折扣 <-- 例如出示旅遊書,餐廳將會提供10％的折扣 ^^
